La Fromagerie’s Braised Chicken
Tuesday, 2nd February 2010 | 2 Comments
I had this braised chicken with chorizo, white beans, and fennel for lunch on Saturday at La Fromagerie in Marylbone. I really wanted to like it but it was a bland due to a complete lack of salt. The sun dried tomatoes were nice and salty and the bread and butter was good. So I didn’t walk away dissatisfied. Just a bit disillusioned. And 17 pounds lighter.

Amazing what the lack of salt can do to a perfectly good (in theory) dish. Salt: it’s what separates the good cooks from the bland.

Tom, I may have been blessed/cursed with a palate that demands savory seasoning. Salt makes everything taste amazing. I wish everyone thought that way.
